M62 - Your Local History
A lot of finds were uncovered during the archaeological evaluation carried out for the M62 Junction 6 Improvement scheme so we thought it would be nice to provide an interactive website so you can see what we found.

Don't Cross or Walk Along Motorways
The Highways Agency aims to make more people aware of the dangers of walking or crossing our motorway. We have launched a poster and radio campaign aimed at 16-25yr olds. Hopefully with our hard hitting posters, our message will come across.

Environmental Topics
The ability to move around in private vehicles is an important personal freedom that enhances our quality of life. However that same freedom imposes costs on people and the environment.
As operator of the nation's motorways and trunk roads we have a responsibility to road users and the communities we influence. We work to minimise the negative impacts of our roads and enhance the quality of the surrounding environment where possible.
Acting on our environmental responsibilities forms part of our approach to Sustainable Development
These pages look at the wide range of areas in which the Highways Agency is working to respect the environment and assist people. This includes cultural heritage and archaeology, the landscape quality of our towns and countryside through to biodiversity and the quality of basic human resources such as air and water.
